Rare locality tourmaline from one of the hardest to find California locations. This brightly colored blue crystal is gemmy throughout with slight shading to a greenish/blue near the termination. The crystal is simply huge for the location and the largest I've seen available out of all the California collections I have handled. Ex. Chuck Houser and Kevin Brown collections. Chuck obtained it directly when found, in the early 1980s.
